Question

What is the safe order for writing an essay? What is the disadvantage to using a sentence outline? What is the first part of any outline? What is parallel grammatical construction? Why is it important?

Answer 1

1. The safe order has four steps: (1) bait the reader, (2) list the general idea or background, (3) write the main body, divided into two or three sections, and (4) end with a summary.

2. The disadvantage to using a sentence outline is that it forces the author to think out each entry with great care before it can even be written down. This can be time-consuming and can cause the final outline to be rather lengthy.

3. The first part of any outline is the statement of subject, which should be expressed in a single phrase or sentence.

4. Parallel grammatical construction means that the grammatical construction used in one heading should be used in all other similar headings throughout the outline. Like headings (and the outline as a whole) are easier to understand when written this way.

5. Any of the following: spatial order, chronological order, order of importance, or order of comparison and contrast.

Answer 2

The safe order to write an essay is: Introduce and present the topic, write the body of the essay (covering all the arguments and phrases necessary to develop the topic), conclude (show how your arguments reach an efficient and well-established ending) .

The disadvantage of using sentence outline is that it is very time consuming, because an essay requires a very large number of sentences. The ideal would be to use a topic outline, which would optimize the time spent, in addition to making the essay more cohesive.

Parallel grammatical construction is a way to build a text with an exact balance between all the phrases and words used, establishing a relationship in which one complements the other in a coherent way. These phrases often have the same grammatical structure, which shows the importance of this type of construction, which is to make the text understandable and allow it to convey a coherent and appropriate message.
